Vietnam: Hanoi, Hue, Hoi An & Saigon
Vietnam was made for bicycling! Traveling from Hanoi in the north to Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon) in the south, you’ll probe the hidden chambers of an imperial city in Hue, explore Hanoi and Hoi An on guided tours, and roll past duck farms, oyster-fishing villages, palm forests, and rice paddies on easy cycling routes. Along the way, you’ll meet modern villagers practicing a traditional way of life and enjoy exclusive events such as a cooking class, visits to a local market and a rice-paper workshop, and a meeting with a wartime foe who is now a friend of VBT. It’s an in-depth experience that touches all the senses as only a bicycling tour from VBT can provide.Tour Highlights
- Explore Hanoi on two guided tours and a cyclo (rickshaw) ride.
- Attend a performance that’s unique to Vietnamese culture: a water puppet show.
- Delve into Vietnam’s ancient history on a guided tour of the Imperial City and the Forbidden Purple City of Hue.
- Admire shifting landscapes of fish and duck farms, rice paddies, palm forest, mountains, and coastline on scenic cycling routes.
- Savor the local cuisine—including a hands-on class at a cooking school.
What to Expect
This tour offers easy terrain throughout the trip and is suitable for beginning cyclists and ideal for regular recreational cyclists. Roads are carefully selected but in general are not of the same standard as in Europe or the U.S. Road surfaces can be a mix of pavement and packed soil. Potholes are not uncommon, and defined lanes are not a given. A mix of vehicles, animals, and pop-up enterprises can be found along urban roadways.

This was an excellent tour. We learned a great deal about Vietnam and saw parts of the country that you could only see and visit on a bicycle. The trip was very well organized and the guides were outstanding.
Journey through Vietnam
Tang and Dat were phenomenal guides. I loved that one was from Hanoi and and one from Saigon so we could get both perspectives. Our guide in Cambodia was also incredible- knew exactly how long things would take and what time we should get to the temples to see sunrise/sunsets and avoid crowds. All hotels were awesome but the Sofitel in Siem Reap was the best hotel I have ever stayed in.
